2014 Deluxe vs EX - Raceman_imp - 10-28-2021
I am confused, please somebody clarify. I want to order a set of Hepco Becker saddlebag mounts for my 2014 CB1100 Deluxe. HB has a set that works on CB1100 from 2013 forward and a set for 2014 CB1100EX. No mention of the Deluxe. The EX appears to have the features of a Deluxe. Is the Deluxe also called the CB1100SA the same as an EX?

Raceman, the 2014EX is the European version of the USA's 2014 Deluxe. I know the wheels and the engine paint were different, but not much else I think. A couple of Belgians set out to ride through the Americas on 2014 CB1100 EXs and they were kitted out with Hepco Becker gear. Start here: http://www.wanderingsouls.be/usa/
their site isn't easy to navigate as it once was, but you can hunt down their blog of the North American trip on CBs. Maybe start here, http://www.wanderingsouls.be/the-big-change/. Somewhere amongst it all I recall their is a reasonable review of the gear they used.

2014 DLX USA model is same as 2014 EX anywhere else in the world(different wheels,paint)
2017 EX USA model is a completely different animal than any 2014 model
I wish 2017 has retained those green gauges from 2014 model.

I would like to add that 2017 EX US model most likely equels 2017 EX Canadian.
I think the green faceplates are only available with 2014 DLX...very unique and beautiful

The 2017 alu colored face plate will fit the 2014 DLX , I have done it on mine and it looks much better than just the black .

I'd love to know how you did this,...exp. how you went about taking out the indicator needles from the center post w/o damaging the internal coil winding

He's talking about a polished cover that goes over the center between the gauges.
RE: 2014 Deluxe vs EX - jedd_imp - 12-02-2021
oh...ok. it's that triangle , star trek looking logo, cover that sits above the keyhole, right?
